Now I know what a FB friend was going on about when she posted this: "This is beautiful - Joni has always inspired me to be more than I can with what God has so graciously given me.". It is true, she has no taste.

I always preferred the <i>evil</i> Bob Hope's (pictured on the left above) "Road to..." films with Bing Crosby (There was only one, and he was pure evil.) and Dorothy Lamour (woman, ergo Satan's tool):

Road to Ruin Road to Nowhere The Road to Perdition The Road to Guantanamo Highway to Hell

They don't make em like that anymore.

Rutter can write some stuff. Hell, Handel and Beethoven and Mendelsohn, and lots of others, wrote liturgical music that amazes the spirit. The choruses I sing in do this stuff, and I love it, despite being agnostic leaning towards atheist. I love it, because it is the product of human beings.

Decades back a lot of public colleges allowed students to select who they preferred to give a public lecture. Most schools eliminated this election as the inevitable winner was always Josh McDowell, of Campus Crusade for Christ. If you didn't want him selected you were against God and Country. He ruined more young minds than all of the Commie profs put together. So now we'll probably see a separate Christian Academy Awards with Kirk Cameron winning everything.
